Summer Reading List 2016

Where are my readers at? I don't know about you, but summer is the season when I get into my reading groove. There's nothing better than sitting around on a hot, lazy day with a book in my hands and an iced tea by my side.

I'm joining my sweet friend, Molly, from Lucky to be in First to bring you my 2016 summer reading list. Read on for some great recommendations as well as a list of books I look forward to reading!

Let's start with my recommendations. These are books that you should definitely read! I've read them, and I loved each and every one of them (otherwise, I wouldn't be recommending them-hehe).

Shopaholic to the Rescue (I'm a sucker for these books. They are so entertaining. I just finished this one and I am basically telling everyone I meet that they should read it.).

The Reading Strategies Book (I finally got my hands on this book mid-year and found it to be a very useful resource! In other words, you'll read it more than once.)

I have a stack of books that I'm ready to read this summer. These are all books that I want to read because, well, I've already bought them and they are just waiting for me crack them open. Curious as to what's on my summer reading list?

The Singles Game (It sounds like the perfect chick lit read...NOTE: it isn't available until July 12, but I've already pre-ordered my copy.)

Up until last year, I had a strict "no PD books during the summer"
policy. But, that is no longer the case. During the summer I
have time to read, so I read it all! Here are a few PD books you might want to read (if you haven't already done so).

Dr. Jean's Reading Recipes (I got this book a while back and it's sitting on my nightstand waiting to be read. I know she's more K-1, but her ideas are amazing and there are always enough of them that I can use with my second graders.)

You can check out more great summer reading recommendations HERE and HERE. :)

Do you have a great summer reading recommendation of your own? Leave the title in a comment below and I'll be sure to check it out!

I hope you do! Her books are always so much fun. I would really like to read the BFG. I'm sure many of my students will be seeing the movie this summer. It might be a fun read aloud for next year. Happy reading!
